• Calcaneal fractures both unilateral and bilateral
• Lower Ankle Arthrodesis

Heel Relief Orthosis allows for being mobile despite a Calcaneal fracture

• Allowing wearers who have suffered a Calcaneal fracture to walk again as quickly as possible - this being the main goal of the Heel Relief Orthosis 
• The Orthosis relieves the Calcaneus by bracing the longitudinal Arch and supporting the Calf (“floating Heel”)
• Even in cases of bilateral Calcaneal fractures, patients can walk nearly normally soon after the accident or surgery
• The Neuromuscular structures and the Calcareous salt content of the Bone are influenced in a positive manner, this prevents damage due to immobilisation.
• The Muscle pump acts as a thrombosis prophylaxis, thanks to additional compression pads, the load can be increased gradually
• Treatment time and costs may be lowered, this was demonstrated in a study by the Wuppertal construction employers’ liability insurance association.

Features and benefits

• Ready-to-fit component kit: All components are easy to assemble
• Compression pads can be individually inserted: Incremental load increase optimises healing
